Mountain hiking, accidentally entered Pandora planet.

Mountain hiking, accidentally entered Pandora and watched "Avatar" countless times. I never thought there would be a place that fulfilled my dream of Pandora. I, who always love to hike with headphones and listen to music, couldn't help but take off my headphones! Completely immersed in nature. Birds chirping, insects buzzing, a few butterflies fluttering over the water, an unknown white bird gliding diagonally across the sky, and a few ducks leisurely passing by. These scenes that seem to be in a painting or a dream suddenly appeared before my eyes, just like the Peach Blossom Spring I fantasized about in middle school Chinese class, as if I were watching a science fiction movie. This is not real. I was stunned for a while and picked up my phone to take pictures and record, but more importantly, I wanted to imprint these scenes in my mind. I stared at the clear and color-changing Qi blue water, the blue spring shining like a sapphire. My environmental mood reached its peak. Finally, I understand why foreigners are so passionate about environmental protection. If the place I love is about to be polluted, I will swear to defend the land I love to the death. Before coming to New Zealand on a WHV, my stereotype of New Zealand was just grasslands and pastures, but as I explored deeper, I found that I love this place even more! Blue Spring Putaruru There is a free parking lot at the entrance. You can hike up and see the Blue Spring in about 15 minutes on foot.
